There is a small race window in the __switch_to code in regard to the transfer of the TIF_MCCK_PENDING bit from the previous to the next task. The bit is transferred before the task struct pointer and the thread-info pointer for the next task has been stored to lowcore. If a machine check sets the TIF_MCCK_PENDING bit between the transfer code and the store of current/thread_info the bit is still set for the previous task. And if the previous task has terminated it can get lost. The effect is that a pending CRW is not retrieved until the next machine checks sets TIF_MCCK_PENDING. To fix this reorder __switch_to to first store the task struct and thread-info pointer and then do the transfer of the bit. Signed-off-by: NMartin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>
